Security staff at the Taj Mahal, refused entry to a tourist dressed like Lord Sri Krishna to celebrate Janmashtami fervour. On Saturday, the event happened. A large audience clapped and adored the guy when he played the flute. People carrying flags, banners, or placards, as well as those attempting self-promotion, were denied entry, according to ASI authorities.
In the past, there have been several occasions when groups of donning Sri Ram 'dupattas' have been stopped at the gate, leading to controversies.
Meanwhile, cheer returned to the local tourism circles as around 20,000 people visited the Taj Mahal, the highest number after the second wave of the pandemic. A large number of people taking advantage of the long weekend have come to Mathura and Vrindavan for the Sri Krishna Janmashtami celebrations on Monday. "On Sunday, weather being pleasant, we expect a huge turnout of visitors at the Taj Mahal," tourist guide Ved Gautam said.
